GNU Rocket v0.10.0 has just been released!

This is the first official release in more than 5 years, and is significantly different from earlier releases . In these 5 years, there's been almost 400 commits, so describing everything will simply be too much. But here's a short overview:

• The editor is now cross-platform, thanks to Qt. It's being regularly build for Windows (in 32 and 64 bit variants), OSX and Linux
  
• Binary builds are available for Windows and OSX
  
• JavaScript support (using WebSockets for communications)
  
• Amiga support (using AmiTCP for communications)
  
• We have moved the mailing lists to Google Groups, and added gitter.im chat-room
  

Big thanks to the following people for their contributions since v0.9:

• mog
  
• Antti Hirvonen
  
• Niels "Plek" J. de Wit
  
• Thor Arne "tags" Gald Semb
  
• Anders "Duckers" Knive Lassen
  
• Rasmus "Macaw" Kaae
  
• bstrr
  
• caiwan
  

In addition to this, there's some awesome people who have done some alternative editors and ports. I'm maintaining a list of these project here, please let me know if I missed something!

Finally, I'd like to point out that I know that a lot of other people have patches for cool features out there. I would really love to see patches upstreamed (remember that the more time that passes, the more the upstream diverges)! So if you're sitting on something cool that you think can be useful to other people, don't be afraid to either send a GitHub Pull Request, or contact me in some other way and I'll help you out.

Thanks kusma for such a great tool, keep up the good work! Rest assured that I'll keep on using it as slowly as humanly possible :D

Well done!

GNU Rocket v0.10.1 has just been released.

This is a rather minor maintenance release, that fixes a couple of bugs in the player library, in particular:

A file-descriptor leak had been fixed in sync_destroy_device. Thanks to Gabor Papp for the patch.

A bug where a random file-descriptor could some times be closed by the player library was fixed.

In some cases very long track-names could lead to a smashed stack. This has now been fixed.

No changes has been done to the editor or any other parts of the code.

Always happy to help, this tool changed so much for me. Will be using it again soon, so maybe there's some more stuff I'll run into. Can't thank you enough for the effort though, so here's one more.

kusma: Thank you dude so much for this update and reminder!!! Just checked it out and I will be rocking on it to get our adaptations out there also, especially for you kusma but also for all of the great GNU Rocket community!

And btw., Qt is a great choice here, let's see what additional bonuses we can get out of it later :).

Kusma I will keep you personally posted about possible rocket update proposals from us too hopefully soon...

deepr: Cool stuff, I look forward to having a look :)

Hi,
[Partly related] I have recently added some cool features to my ground control project.

Ground Control is an alternative editor to the GNU Rocket editor, it supports the same file format and it have some couple of nice extra features to it.

Rocket v0.10.2 has just been released!

This is once again a minor maintainance release, with only two fixes:

The OSX binaries now uses Qt5, so it gains websocket-support which is required for JavaScript support. Thanks to D-Fox for noticing.

Some MSVC-related defines have been changed to remove a couple of warnings when using really strict compiler-settings.

As an additional note, Rocket has moved to it's own GitHub organization, meaning the upstream repo is now located here!

So, if you're using Rocket on OSX and use the pre-built binaries and wants to target JavaScript, now is a good time to upgrade.

Looks like team rocket is... never mind. ;)
Nice work as always!
